Signs to Look For:
Reluctance to volunteer in class or engage in group work.
Self-critical comments, such as “I’m not smart enough.”
Hesitance to try new things or take risks.
Quick Intervention
Highlight and encourage the student’s strengths and abilities.
Celebrate small achievements to build confidence gradually.
Provide supportive feedback that emphasizes growth and effort.
Refer to Counselor
If self-esteem issues persist and significantly affect the student’s participation or well-being, refer them to the school counselor for deeper exploration and guidance.
